Extra white space when I export images in Illustrator cs6

I found a new solution for those that couldn't fix it yet
When you are exporting click on the advanced options icon and then select Background color to transparent and that's it
It worked for me 🙏

Selecting "Artboards" option on the export as dialogue box, I couldn't get rid of a white line until I realized that the dimensions were not integers. (the document was 834.8 px x 1080 px, apparently the white line appeared on the left side) Now that I adjusted the document dimensions as integers, I am able to export raster images hassle-free.

Hey Justin@Philamedia (or anyone):

So I get the need for artboards ... an advanced question on the same issue ...

When you have a random object off of the artboards ... you can generally "export selection" ... which works great.

EXCEPT when the image uses a clipping mask. Then the exported image takes on random space in a seemingly arbitrary way and it is super annoying.

You can see this example. It is not grouped with anything outside the image... and even the full borders of the clipped images are only a little bit outside of the viewable final image. Where as the exported images is like 5x the area of the viewable image. Thoughts???

(If you highlight or drag and drop the below image to your desktop you can see all the white space added. This was the same using the export tool and export selection command.)

THANKS!

I'm using AI CS6 on MacOS Sierra and I'm not seeing a box to check "Use Artboards". Ugh! What am I doing wrong?

OMG! THANK YOU SO MUCH! I've been spending sooo much time trying to figure out what the heck is going on. You're AMAZING!

Is the artboard aligned to the pixel grid?

You might want to fix your attitude and your spelling. You're not talking to Adobe here, but to people who try to help you in their spare time.

Ah.. You are such a life saver.

Thanks Alot
